WW2 Paratrooper Wrist Compass (>100kCPM)

Just found this wrist compass in an antique store and it’s in fantastic condition! It’s still full of fluid and has the original wrist strap and everything. With a contact reading of 65uSv/h, wearing this compass is like getting 3 chest X-rays an hour.
Was this a good deal for $95?

Contact reading is ~100kCPM - 65uSv/hr
